First you pump then you dump. :)

Oops, typo. Although I am curious what a dump and dump would accomplish...

If you had a bunch of puts, sufficient dumping might be enough to create a panic, and then the puts would be worth more than the loss from dumping.

If you short the stock I believe the dump and subsequent dump would be in your favor.
